BREAKING: Trump admin. will begin printing 2020 census forms without citizenship question, DOJ spokesperson says

The Trump administration will move forward with printing the 2020 census without a controversial citizenship question, a Department of Justice spokesperson said Tuesday.

The Supreme Court last week blocked the administration from adding the question, saying it did not provide a sufficient rationale for including it in the census. Opponents of adding the question said it was designed as a Republican effort to depress response rates in largely Democratic immigrant communities.

I guess they want us to cheer? Next time don't make it an issue GOP . You can save the country a lot of time and money.

I don't agree , if you're not a citizen you should not be counted

DBChirpy since that’s what the Constitution calls for it the right thing to do.

Somehow I don’t believe that, the failed Trump Administration will try some way to add the citizenship question I don’t trust this failed Administration........ at all!!!!!!’

Instead it will ask, 'are you here illegally?'

Check them, knowing them there will be 2 versions printed.

Every true American should do a write in 🇺🇸 Pride and honesty counts.

Bow down to the insane.

Sweet. They won't know I'm from Andromeda.

Lost again in court. More to come.

Good. Citizenship is the prerequisite to benefit

Good.

Why bother filling it up lol

Cause God forbid that you have to be here legally to vote !

I say they just say screw it and print them with the question anyway. You know your country has an illegal alien problem when you have to ask someone whether they are a citizen or not on a census form.

Hmmm how about if we write it in a small box if we are a citizen of the United States.

Hey realDonaldTrump got you something in celebration of our Independence Day.

Given their track record, someone needs to proof it first. Someone from the Dems side.

Another MAGA L

I’m glad this has been resolved correctly.

And another win for America.

Un-winning?

Yeah. He let it go because too many people are figuring out that the census question is to help Trump and the GOP draw their gerrymandered cheating districts. But, who are we kidding? The Supreme Court gave them the green light to do it anyways. Census2020

What does it say when it’s a breaking news story that the president actually followed a Supreme Court mandate?

Known going forward as the John Roberts ‘senseless census’. A census is used to proportion tax funds. Now sanctuary states harboring illegals will drain citizen tax monies.

At least Trump is not defying the Supreme Court. There’s that.

Hey, realDonaldTrump

I am a liberal, terrorist and illegal immigrants will never harm me because I Support them

Lol owned

The census determines a State's house representation and electoral college votes. So everyone who fought 'foreign interference' in our last election is now celebrating the fact foreign nationals will affect our future elections. Census2020

Trump actually follows the constitutionally mandated thing? This is big news, completely unprecedented.

Are we even a country anymore...
